Da Doo Re Run Run Part III

I promise that when I get a chance to slow down, I will start writing again (I originally spelled this "righting" Sheesh, I AM losing it!) The last couple of weeks I have been running about like the proverbial chicken with its head cut off. Speaking of chickens I believe I will be building a coop this weekend. Post for another day. This week though for some reason I have had one thing on my mind...Hunky Hubby! Yep, I know, can't get that cutie outta my brain. I just marvel some days that after nearly 20 years together, we still really like each other. Twenty years seems like a long time when you are young, but I feel like we are finally just starting to get to know each other! One line from a song that I am rather fond of pronounces, "When I wrap my arms around you, every mistake we've made crumbles." I guess that is what love is all about. So for re-run number three I revisit a little incident that threatened, even if only briefely, the state that we affectionately call marital bliss, yet ended with us laughing and loving--mostly!

Please do not wait until then. We have been doing this since #2 baby was born! This just happened to be a day trip. We take our anniversary overnighter every year! It isn't a luxury in a marriage...it is essential!!!

I think that was one of the first of your blogs I ever read and I loved it then. Greg and I take walks all the time (or did in the summer and fall!) and I love every minute. Here's to 18 years - with no end in sight!

About Me

The SIMPLE MINDED girl who blogs here is very happily married to the man of her dreams, hoping someday to become the woman of HIS dreams! They have four great kids whom they adore but take pleasure in sometimes embarrassing in front of their friends. She is a snob (with no right to be) about books, movies and music and intends to post quite a few suggestions (i.e. ego-driven overtly opinionated rants) on what you should read, watch and listen to. She feels passionately about religion, simplicity, nature, yoga, food, politics, learning and (most of the time) life! This blog is an experiment in reaching out to long lost friends, and perhaps making a few new ones.
